Naomi Misora is still too quick to assume police tactics from our home will be useful here. I sometimes wonder if she recalls I chose her during Bloody August because she was on leave from the FBI at the time and had mobility. Police can be a terrible burden.

There is one glaring hole: Apathy.

People are killed daily and not a lot is being done about it.

To be blatantly honest, Light's popularity would give him plenty of space in which to hide in. The Citizens will not be willing to admit that their first impression of him as a nice respectable and responsible man is wrong. There is also the problem of Light's intellect. He has made the mistake before of "capturing" himself. His thought process will be more deliberate this time, and he will not let himself make such a mistake again.

Another hole: lack of evidence. People will not believe that Light orchestrated this attack unless we can prove beyond a doubt that he is the one.

However, the benefit of announcing this to the public would be a nagging doubt at the back of everyone's mind. Whether this will be enough to give us an advantage, I can not say.

If the Citizens do not believe you, then we must concentrate not only on capturing criminals, including Kira, but also gaining credibility. Without it, it will be even more difficult to make headway in the Kira case.

Nagging doubt is better than no doubt at all. The real question is, would such an action hurt us? We made a mistake with Matt. We cannot afford another one, not when we are this close.

L the Arbiter is not here. We must work together to create him, I am not sure you saw my earlier post on the matter.

I did.

Unfortunately, we have no time to create L the Arbiter while, as you said earlier "the iron is hot". We must either attempt to sow the seeds of doubt or create credibility and wait for our next chance.

The latter will require waiting, which we can't afford any more of. The former, a gambit, will not be as damaging as the issue with Matt. Because no one could forge a connection between Matt and Light, but only with Matt and Dietrich, we should not be seen as "taking revenge" on Light. The citizens could only see the situation as a "fabrication" of yours if they could make the connection between Matt and Light.

By the sheer magnitude of this accusation and the fact that you and Light appeared friendly, at least 31% of the population would have doubt about Light's integrity.

We cannot afford to simply say "Light did it". People would think my fevered mind fabricated the accusation out of spite or that I am attempting to pull a prank.

We need to plant a seed of doubt and hope the Citizens identify Light on their own. The question is how? We cannot manipulate the media as we used to.

If Misora did not insist on doing things her own way, she could be utilized.

If you did not place a name to the one behind the plot to kill you, it would force Light to "root out" this murderer.

Do you believe Light will make a mistake as the Warden, trying to capture this "murderer"? If so, then you should make an announcement. If not, then there is no purpose to the attention you would draw to yourself.

Why do you believe Ophelia obeyed Light?

Ophelia obeyed Light because she wanted to root out Naomi. It is no secret Naomi has been launching investigations against her.

You are right about the eyes that would be turned upon is. We need somebody else to release this information. An impartial party....

....Smoker, perhaps?

If he is indeed impartial...why would he announce such a thing to your benefit?

Misora must be controlled. Her potential at the moment is being outweighed by her liability to our cause.

What did Ophelia gain in obeying Light, then?

Ophelia gained nothing. It did not work.

And please watch the battlefield more closely, Near. Smoker would announce such a thing because he is a police officer. He pursues justice as we do but is uninvolved in our case against Yagami Light.

I see.

However, how much would he say?

We should not make an announcement that might cause Ophelia to think we are searching for her alone. She could be valuable in the future.
